Message the farm like a teammate.
The agent reads printers, queue, materials, and operator notes — then tells you what to do next. No dashboard hunting. No spreadsheet.
By Print Hive Ops
Queue with context
Material, nozzle, dryness, what's already in the AMS. The queue writes down why, not just what.

Ask, don't hunt
Type a question. The agent calls the right tools and returns the physical next step.

Remember what telemetry can't
Operator notes: belt tension, extruder swaps, quirks. The agent reads them before it answers.

Give Grok Bot a farm job
Every ask returns a physical next step. Pull beds. Load filament. Clear a jam.
Pull parts
Finished beds sitting on printers. Queued jobs already have a ready printer if those beds get pulled.
Clear pauses
Printers paused right now — AMS runout, filament runout, clogs, pull-back fails. They're occupied and producing nothing.
Match queue to plastic
Which queued job already fits Sally or Hiro? The agent names the plate and the changeover you'd skip.

Try these first
Read-only questions to verify the connection. Click to copy.
“What do I do next on the farm?”
“Which beds are finished and still sitting?”
“Which queued job already fits Sally or Hiro?”
“What's paused, and why?”
Verify
You’re connected when:
Print Hive shows Installed in Plugins
You picked the correct org during OAuth
A read-only ask returns your named printers (e.g. "Harry", "Luna")
Safety
Agent reads first
The agent reads current farm state before answering. It does not start, stop, or heat a printer unless you asked and approved the card.
OAuth first
Use OAuth authentication. API key is a private headless fallback only — do not paste keys into chat.
Org-scoped
Every request is bound to the Print Hive organization you selected during setup.
Farm Manager is still the free default
If you are all-Bambu, on the LAN, and you click Start yourself, Farm Manager works. Keep it if the walk is short and wrong-AMS reprints are rare.
Supported printers
Print Hive is Bambu-first. P1S, X1C, A1, A1 Mini, H2S, H2D. Snapmaker U1 is live. Prusa is coming, not live.
Stop holding the farm in your head.
Fleet on one screen. A queue that looks at material, nozzle, dryness, and what’s already in the AMS — and writes down why. A playbook when you ask what to do next.
14-day Pro, no card, 15 printers. After that you drop to Free unless you keep it.
